You mean doctors like this Dr. Karas here one lost their license?
As early as November 2020, Dr. Robert Karas, the jail’s doctor, told inmates who had contracted COVID that he was giving them a cocktail of vitamins, antibiotics, and steroids when in fact he was administering dangerously high doses of the dewormer.
“At no point were Plaintiffs informed that the medications they were consuming included Ivermectin,” the lawsuit says. “Further, Plaintiffs were not informed of the side effects of the drug administered to them or that any results would be used for research purposes.”
As a result, these men experienced diarrhea, bloody stools, stomach cramps, and vision problems, the lawsuit says, all of which suggest ivermectin poisoning.

- pnf 4y agoYes, definitely citing an arstechnica piece citing a lawsuit's claims by very credible inmates is the winning argument.
- the_why_of_y 4y agoNotably, the article doesn't say that he did lose his license, or that that is even a possible outcome. Also, I would like to point out that prisoners in the land of the free are still humans.
- pnf 4y agoWhy point that out? Seems like a non sequitur.
- yehosef 4y agono, I mean other doctors that prescribe a safe drug. If the inmates had too much, they had too much. And experimenting or giving a treatment without proper disclosure is wrong and the doctor should lose their license for that - if nothing else. But thanks for bringing that example because it shows the evil of experimenting on people without full disclosure. Now if you want to talk about the incidence of heart-attacks and myocarditis after vaccines and the experiments that were run on the public without proper notification of their risks, we'd have an interesting discussion. As the twitter files show, any such discussion was suppressed because "the vaccines are safe" and anyone that say otherwise is "promoting misinformation".
